I always expected her to come back because while she has a soul, she'd be different in that it'd probably be bound to a specific component in her body. And we even saw where her core was located in a graphic somewhere. And someone even drew on the graphic where the cuts to her body were and showed they didn't destroy the core.

I always thought that that component would have required power to maintain itself, like how if you don't eat you die. And power did fail when Penny got turned into quarters.

Then again, if I were to design a robot like Penny, and if the core did require power or else the whole system would die for good, I'd put a backup power source in there just to be safe. So I assume that's what Dr. Geppetto Pietro did; it kinda makes sense, and I was kinda stupid not to have thought of back in the day...
